Flea Market Find: Winnie the Pooh Bank
We got this great little ceramic
Winnie the Pooh bank at the flea market last year.
We
were drawn to it, like a bear to honey. (Get it? Bear to...moving
on.)
Walt Disney Productions is marked on the bottom, which means it was produced before February of 1986.
The
gentleman selling it was asking $5. While we really
liked it, we felt $5 was high, because it's missing its stopper and had some chips. I offered $3. As expected, he countered with $4. I was just turning Barbie to ask if she had any single dollar bills, when, to my surprise, the man said, "Okay, 3!" Maybe he assumed we were discussing the price, and were about to walk away? I don't know, but what I do know is we got a great little bank without breaking the bank.
I just noticed it says Pooh's Honey Bank, not Pooh's Hunny Bank! I bet if a bank like this was made today it would have Hunny on it.
